Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich

5 from 2 votes

This decadent chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich, aka chipwich, is made with homemade chocolate chip cookies and vanilla ice cream.

Servings:

Heat the oven to 375℉ (190℃).
Weigh the flour using a kitchen scale.
In a bowl, add the weighed flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix the dry ingredients together and set aside.
In a separate bowl mix the salted butter, white granulated sugar, and dark brown sugar together using a hand mixer. Cream the butter and sugar together really well. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Blend in the dry ingredients.
Add the chocolate chips and mix with a wooden spoon (or your hands).
Using a small cookie scoop, spoon out the chocolate chip cookie dough onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet about 2" (5 cm) apart.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until the cookies begin to change colors.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes prior to making the chipwich cookies ice cream sandwich.

Leave the ice cream to soften at room temperature for a few minutes.
Using a regular-sized ice cream scoop, scoop the ice cream and smoosh it in between two chocolate chip cookies. Eat immediately or freeze the chipwich.

To freeze the chipwich: Individually wrap the cookie in plastic wrap, then place it in a freezer-friendly storage bag. Freeze immediately for up to 6 weeks.
Use store-bought chocolate chip cookies to save time, although, I highly recommend making homemade chocolate chip cookies for a better chipwich.
